Quinn recounts the eponymous fictional story of a young man, William Henry Quinn, who walks from the south-west of England to the far north of Scotland, in post Second World War Britain. Between 2014 and 2021, British photographer, artist, and writer Lottie Davies worked extensively on this intricately researched and documented large-scale multimedia project which exists online, as immersive physical exhibitions, and as this limited edition monograph. Quinn is a meditation on grief, loss, loneliness, the search for meaning and the possibility of redemption through time and landscape, pertinent across the ages and tragically as poignant today as when the story is set.
